deployment to a Web server. This is a better option for Web application projects because registration and configuration issues are handled by Visual Studio .NET.
In order to deploy a Web application to a Web server, you create a Web Setup project, build it, copy it to the Web ser ver computer, and run the installer to install the application on the Web server.
Creating a Deployment Project
Perform the following steps in order to create a deployment project for the SkyShark Airlines application.
1.Open your SkyShark Airlines application.
2.On the File menu, point to Add and click on New Project.
3.In the Add New Project dialog box (refer to Figure 26-4), select the Setup and Deployment option from the Project Types: pane and the Setup Project from the Templates: pane.
4.Enter SkySharkDeploy in the Name: text box and the required path in the Location: text box (refer to Figure 26-4).
